Es ist an der Zeit, meine Nerd-Diplomarbeit zum Abschluss zu bringen. Lange genug konnte ich das alles noch irgendwie als „Arbeit am nächsten Roman“ tarnen, der im Sommer 1985 spielen wird – aber der ist nun fertig und ich habe keine Ausrede mehr. Hier also meine ultimative 80s-Playlist mit 800 ausgewählten Songs aus Pop, Rap, Rock, Alternative, Reggea, dazu einige unbekanntere Funde, aber auch cheesy Liebeslider und Smash Hits.
Im Gegensatz zu der Liste vom Frühjahr, die sich auf New Wave beschränkte, habe ich jetzt auch immer wieder Titel draufgetan, die ich selbst nicht liebe, die aber sein müssen. Die 80s waren eben immer auch eine große Bad Taste-Party, aber ich habe versucht, so viele gute Lieder wie möglich reinzuschmuggeln. Viel Spaß beim Hören!
P.S. Schaut man sich die Videos an, finden sich darunter etliche Klassiker wie von a-ha, aber auch einige Kuriositäten („Safety Dance“ und „King of Rock ‚N‘ Roll„, wtf?). Mein geheimer Favorit ist jedoch „Dancing In The Street“ von Mick Jagger und David Bowie. Das Video ist so großartig bescheuert, dass ich es hier teilen muss. Wer schon immer mal sehen wollte, wie zwei absolute Weltstars wie Teenager herumspacken, die sich zu Hause unbeachtet fühlen – hier ist der Link.
